Henry Isaacs: Color Unleashed
These color centric canvases are splendid patchworks of boldly applied oil paint rendering the Maine landscape into broken pieces of color. The eye stitches them together in a way that evokes more of a sense of mood and weather than recognizable scenes. No matter what the size of the canvas, his palate takes the viewer outside into soaring spaces. He paints on Islesford and Portland, Maine, and has worked worldwide.
Jeff and Susan Wise: Dynamic and Bold Jewelry
A multi talented, Colorado based couple who work in tandem to fabricate mechanically challenging and sculpturally intriguing jewelry. They cut all their gemstones to seamlessly integrate into colorful, textured, voluminous work. Their work is exciting, sensual and often kinetic. Come meet the artists.
Chris French: Paintings of Solitude and Place
His paintings of figures in the landscape are evocative of personal reflection clairvoyance. Chris likes to paint from photographs and then alter the light and composition to achieve more dramatic image. When he is not painting, he is a research pathologist in Boston.
